Stingray Assam Pedas – 亚参魔鬼鱼

Assam Pedas is a tangy & spicy Malay dish that never fails to hit the spot! Today we show you how to make this Classic in the comfort of your own kitchen. You’ll be surprised at how easy it is!

This traditional stew pairs perfectly with freshwater fish. For our recipe, we’ve chosen to use stingray because, when it’s cooked right, we reckon there’s nothing quite like it that flakes off the bone like a steak from the sea.
The key to the dish lies in the blend of rempah combine with the flavour from tamarind (Assam).

We round the dish off with a helping of okra and tomato wedges, then crown it with a last few ingredients – belimbing and torch ginger bud that infuses with a peppery piquancy and surprises with a subtle sweetness.

Once it’s ready to serve, this mouthwatering dish enjoyed over rounds of fluffy steamed rice and warm family conversations.
